OpenSSL seems to come with a Perl script called CA.pl which actually
makes creating a CA and signing certs trivial. Needless to say the
documentation for this is very poor (there must be some sort of plot by
the OpenSSL/PKI people to make encryption seem unnecessarily complex)
but I did find some online documentation for this which unfortunately I
can't find again. I'll keep looking ...
